Life and Death Legacy Challenge
Welcome to the Life and Death Legacy Challenge. This is a 10-generation challenge where each generation’s traits are chosen for you. Each generation has a list of tasks to complete before they pass on in the way indicated. Yes, that’s right you must cause the death of your heir every generation, but don’t worry you have plenty of time to spend with them while their alive and you’ve always got a new generation to tend to. You can start with a Male or Female sim, you can live on any lot you choose. No cheats allowed, except you can gift each generation after the first, 10,000 Simeloneans as a “trust” if their parents have more than that in their funds, you can use the kaching cheat for this only. You do not have to deplete funds from the other household. Aging must be on but, you can set the lifespan to your preference, though normal makes it more challenging. Most expansions and packs were used in the making of this challenge, if you do not have them, you may have to skip or modify certain generations. Good Luck, Happy Simming!
1st Generation: Wasting Time
You are a relaxed laid-back sim. You like to go about life at your own pace and as such you never get a job. Instead you hone your talent of woodworking to pay the bills. You spend your young adult life dating your soulmate, finally tying the knot and moving in together when you’re adults. You have one child whom you raise together in your laid-back ways. Your spouse doesn’t work either though he/she spends his time harvesting random plants and collectibles to pay his share.

b. Your sim must max out the handiness skill by using the woodworking table and complete the grilled cheese aspiration (you will have to change to this after you earn it)

d. Your household must complete 1 collection (ie, plants crystals etc)
e. Have at least 1 child with the evil trait and at least 2 poor social skills, such as No compassion or Emotional Control
f. Your sim will die of *embarrassment or anger as an elder after realizing they raised a corporate goon. (*edited to add Anger as choice for emotional death)
2nd Generation: Moneytalks
Your parents were hippies and you’re anything but. You can’t believe you had to grow up with people who lived off the land and never worked a “real” job. You will begin living in the city, but later build a mansion on a lot of your choosing (or place a ready made mansion). You will join the business career while trying to pretend your parents don’t exist. You will succeed in completing the Business career and Mansion Baron aspiration, because you earned it!

3rd Generation: Lust for Life
You saw what a loveless marriage looked like and swore to never repeat it. You also knew what it was like to be the child of a workaholic and decided children and corporate life were not in your plans. You date several different sims but never find one to settle down with. You instead pour yourself into your interests, working by day as a painter while traveling and partying at every chance you can. Late in life you will have one unplanned child and try your best to raise it.

f. Your sim will die from the over exhaustion of too much woohoo as an elder. People will say he/she died doing what they loved.
4th Generation: Breakers

You will marry very quickly as a young adult to a sim you have not gotten to know (you can’t ask). You will get married at the Romance Festival on a whim. You will work in the Social Media career, so you can work from home as often as possible. Think Mommy Blogger!
a. Your sim’s traits will be Family Oriented, Outgoing and Perfectionist
b. Your sim must complete the Big Happy Family Aspiration and the Social Media Career
c. Since your sim didn’t know their spouse very well before marriage they must argue once a week on Tuesdays. Tuesdays are soooo stressful!

e. Your sim must change their interior decorations for each season, the house must be Simstagram worthy.
f. Your sim will die of hysterical laughter as an adult because being perfect takes its toll

Seeking some “me time” you’ve moved yourself out of town to a small humble place to live on your own.

8th Generation: Anyone Else But You
There was never a dull moment in your house. Living in the city was fun, your parents took you to the best restaurants and outings, you look back on it fondly. However, as an adult you find life hard to navigate, your lean to the darker side of life some might call you goth, you might call them dumb. Your obsession with the darker side of life brings you to discover vampires and you know you must become one. You will move to Forgotten Hollow and marry a human (obviously you need a constant plasma source). You will have a child even though you don’t like kids to appease your spouse.

9th Generation: Been Caught Stealing
Growing up with a parent who didn’t want you in the dark and drafty Forgotten Hollow made you want nothing more than sunlight, even though it's what killed your mother/father. Isn’t it ironic. After watching all of the plasma drinking you have decided a plant-based diet is more your speed. You enjoy tending to your own garden, but you can’t shake the devious side of yourself altogether. You often find you have “accidentally” swiped items and you just love a good prank. You marry a sim you are good friends with and become Partners in Crime and have at least 1 child.

10th Generation Stray Cat Strut
Your parents were weird. Always pulling pranks and stealing things. It’s like they never grew up. The effect of all those pranks left you a bit squeamish and now the thought of a clogged toilet makes you shiver. You find solace amongst the animals especially cats. You might even grow up to be a crazy cat sim! You decide to open your own veterinary clinic because you like to work your own hours, or all of the hours because there is always an animal that needs you. Your family consists of you and 6 cats, just in case you ever decide to have a real child. You also have a rodent, but you just can’t seem to love him as much as your cats. hmmm.
a. Your sim’s traits will be Geek, Cat Lover and Clumsy
b. Your sim will complete the Friend of the Animals Aspiration as well as Maxing the Veterinary skill and own a vet clinic. (clinic can be in their home)
c. You must adopt your cats as strays. If one dies you must replace it, always keeping 6 cats.
d. Your squeamishness may be a problem around sick animals but you power through. Be sure to reward yourself by playing video games when you get home, even if you’re too tired. Max the Video Game Skill.
e. Your sim can not get married or have a live-in partner because of all the cats. However, if you want to continue your legacy you may have 1 child. (Otherwise your game will end with the death of this sim)
f. Your sim will have an unfortunate encounter one night and be bitten by the rodent. Because of this your sim will die of the Rabid Rodent Death.
Congratulations you have completed the Life and Death Legacy challenge. Now what will you do? There are still so many opportunities and deaths to explore? Will your next heir own a sauna or go for a walk in a thunderstorm? Will they be an astronaut who dies when their rocket plummets or possibly ask the wishing well a poorly timed question? Happy Simming and Thanks for playing!

Generation five feels like you intended to have noncomittal as a trait, not unflirty.
Year Long Community Challenge
I can see that. The personality is not so much non-committal as it is some one who has a hard time making decisions. They are un-flirty and relunctant to make a choice of a relationship. Plus it makes finding the right sim more of a challenge. 😁
That is a cool idea! I've never thought of doing a yard sale before.
Year Long Community Challenge
Just waiting for that nice age up to get them actually together. He already has two children but that shouldn't matter. Right? XD and about half a bar to level 10 in handiness.
She's gone overboard with gardening,fishing, and recording it. I can't seem to complete any of the collections. Rng not being friendly. I just need 3 more trophies.
Year Long Community Challenge
I will update every generation :)
